The East Sussex three piece take a sidestep to their country punk debut. The revamped sound is gritty and raw, with basslines that rumble with unfiltered intensity and drums that drive each track with pounding, relentless energy. The dark twang elements have not disappeared but if you break the surface you will find a restless undercurrent of electronic rhythms, adding complexity and tension. Andrew J Davies’ baritone vocals help answer the question you never knew you would ask.  What would Lee Hazlewood guesting on a Cabaret Volataire track sound like?

Lyrically you will follow the band down the rabbit hole of addiction, breakdowns and break ups but there is sunshine amidst the dark clouds with songs like Empty which oozes Balearic shimmer.

 This second album delivers a melancholic atmosphere, coupled with a tint of country twang and vocal.  On listening you will understand why festivals like Rustic Stomp part of the Muddy Roots family are calling them the “jewel in the crown.”

The band is a unique father-and-daughter-led collaboration, born from a journey of emotional healing and shared passion. When Andrew J Davies (the father) left the family home, Ruby (the daughter) was left angry and hurt.  For a period, the two didn’t speak, and when they eventually did, the pain and unresolved emotions hung heavy in the air.

 Their shared love of music had always connected them, but it ultimately became the bridge that brought them closer together. After a period of healing and reflection, Ruby accepted her father’s invitation to join the band.  Together with former Peter & the Test Tube Babies drummer, Og’s, they form the core trio which expands from time to time to include violin, cornet and keyboards.

The album has been brewing for over a year with various teaser dropping throughout in the shape of The Lullaby, I Know You’re Damaged, Falling, Empty & Running Man. Check the videos here…
